HERE is more than one railway line connecting Chicago and the North- 
west whereby one may travel safely, comfortably and swiftly, but there 
is only one line that adds an enchanting scenic beauty to its standard 
efficiency, and that line is the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul. When 
you have efficiency with beauty you have a service that you accept for 
your quick business runs at night, because there is nothing so good; and 
for your recreation tours by day, because perfect transportation is glorified 
and yourself entertained and rested by a shifting spectacle of Nature's tender- 
ness and grandeur. Nature has given us up to huddle in dirty cities, but 
she has never wholly cut us off; and now the annual yearning is upon us to go 
back and be gay, sportive and foolish, romping with her who is always mother, and for 
a pitiful little time, resting upon her bosom. 

The resources of Wisconsin as refuge for the fugitive from work, are past 
enumeration; but pictures are another and more attractive story, and one that, without 



coaxing, you enthusiastically believe. Rhetoric is a divine art, but when you want mucn 
in little, the photograph, well composed, is unexcelled. 

This book of beautiful and interesting landscape scenes, along the line of the 
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway, suggests the possibilities of delight in a 
quick flight to the Northwest, a sojourn in a woodland spot beside a silver lake, a 
period of more ceremonial recreation in hotels at popular resorts, or the homely and 
jolly excursion of the day, that eats, drinks, laughs and is merry, for the greenwood is 
so fair to live in. 

From Chicago, Milwaukee is less than two, and St. Paul 
and Minneapolis but little more than twelve hours distant. At 
La Crosse the Mississippi opens a way, to be thereafter a 
noble companion for 127 miles. En route are Milwaukee, 
Oconomowoc and the Dells. Remember the Dells, as thou- 
sands have done before you. Here, in days primeval, Nature 
turned her water courses free and wrought out Titanic sculpture 
and architecture for the eternal wonderment of man.
